Conduit is a synchronizatino framework. I've been using it for some time without problems. I use two way synchronization between Google Contacts and Evolution contacts without problems (there are some drawbacks in this case, because evolution does not have all the information that google contacts has) . But, there is no problem between two evolution instances. I use it for synchonizing other information like iPods and Rhythmbox.
That's my two cents .
